Chapters are written by a diverse group of authors, all of whom offer insight and expertise in training healthcare professionals in preparing for disasters. Topics include myths and realities of natural disasters and disaster preparedness for special populations of elders-the acute care elderly, the community-dwelling elderly, home based primary care senior veterans, the immune-compromised elderly, those with multiple and co morbid illnesses, the long-term care elderly, those elderly at the end of life and the effects of disaster on caregivers. A significant portion of the book is also devoted to training, competencies, literacy, cultural competency and resilience in disaster preparedness as well as the role of the academic medical center. The volume concludes with coverage of the management of behavioral, medical and psychological consequences of disasters. Disaster Preparedness for Seniors: A Comprehensive Guide for Healthcare Professionals is an important new volume and will serve as a guide for the development of programs, policies and procedures for evacuation of seniors during various disaster scenarios.   . 606 $aGeriatrics 606 $aEmergency medicine 606 $aPrimary care (Medicine) 606 $aGeriatrics/Gerontology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33150 606 $aEmergency Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H22000 606 $aPrimary Care Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H51000 608 $aHandbooks, manuals, etc.$2fast 615 0$aGeriatrics. 615 0$aEmergency medicine. 615 0$aPrimary care (Medicine). 615 14$aGeriatrics/Gerontology. 615 24$aEmergency Medicine. 615 24$aPrimary Care Medicine. 676 $a362.19897 676 $a363.3492 702 $aCefalu$b Charles A$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300353803321 996 $aDisaster Preparedness for Seniors$91522977 997 $aUNINA
